hello
Started orchid growing late January this year and have only seen real flowers, but not the whole plants except for the phaleanopsis orchids.
Are the tops burnt, dried, eaten by insects or is this normal? All 5 pseudobulbs on this blooming size Frances Fox have the same tops. How do I protect that part of cattleya plants? Or I need to? Will a flower spike emerge from those tips/tops or only on new pseudobulbs? I also have golden flare cattleya but the tips don’t have any growth yet. Maybe because it’s still young?
It was hard to get in between the leaves to take photos, I hope these are ok.
Thank you
